Magnesium chloride (MgCl2) hydrate (1:6)

Description:
Magnesium chloride (MgCl2) hydrate, specifically in a 1:6 molar ratio, is a hydrated form of magnesium chloride that typically contains six water molecules for each magnesium chloride unit. This compound is often encountered as a white, crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water, making it useful in various applications, including de-icing, dust control, and as a source of magnesium in chemical processes. The presence of water molecules in the hydrate contributes to its stability and affects its physical properties, such as melting point and hygroscopicity. Magnesium chloride itself is an ionic compound, and in its hydrated form, it can participate in various chemical reactions, including those involving the release of water upon heating. The CAS number 7791-18-6 specifically identifies this hydrated form, which is important for regulatory and safety considerations. Overall, magnesium chloride hydrate is valued for its versatility in both industrial and laboratory settings.
